Got a copy of Chapman's?


By law, every boat should should come with a laminated card tied to
someplace conspicuous, telling the new owner about the Chapman book. I have
a newer one, but while packing to move to my new house, I found the copy my
dad bought me in 1968. It's got a whole chapter on proper uniforms for
hanging out at the yacht club. What a stitch! :-)


I have my father's Blue Jacket Manual from his hitch in the USCG in
1936.

It's very different from today's Blue Jacket Manual, although some
things are very similar.

Later,
